Pick a single team each week. If the team wins you survive to pick again the next week. If the team loses or ties, you are eliminated from the pool. (Exception: if all teams picked that week lose, every player who picked that week continues on to the next week). No team can be picked more than once over the course of the season. You are welcome to sign up by posting your week one team. This is being posted early for maximum participation.

Hervoyel has agreed to donate a DVD copy of the first game victory over the Dallas Cowboys to the winner. One winner only and we will come up with a tiebreaker forumla if there are multiple survivors. Feel free to ask any questions, and good luck!

Well, when you're looking for a loser, there's always the 'Boys to count on.

Ok, last week I had the Rams, so my selection this week is NEW ENGLAND

gwallaia

09-13-2004, 06:51 PM

Oh hell, let me pick the Cowgirls and get it over with. Parcells has to be angry about the loss to the Vikings and will have the girls ready to beat the Browns.

TEXANS84

09-13-2004, 07:46 PM

You have to pick another team 84. You cannot pick a team twice.

Ahhh! Shoot!
Ok...goin' with the Packers on this one.

gwallaia

09-15-2004, 09:27 AM

I see alot of people taking the Patriots over the Cardinals this week. Sounds like a sure bet.. but I have this nagging suspicion that the Patriots long winning streak will end in Arizona. Just call it a hunch, don't ask me to explain it.

I think the Pats winning streak will end .....my guess is that will end no later than week 8 when they play in Pittsburgh. Before that they're on the road to the Bills and Jets, at home to Miami and Seahawks....week 3 is their bye week.

Blake

09-15-2004, 12:53 PM

Arizona.

OLB Raynoch Thompson Knee DOUBTFUL
DB Dexter Jackson Back I-R. Out for the season
RB James Hodgins Shoulder I-R. Out for the season
RB Marcel Shipp Ankle I-R. Out for the season
WR Anquan Boldin Knee OUT- Out until mid-October

This is the safest bet in NFL history. The pats look strong. They are clicking on offense. And their D is solid. The only thing against them is they will be in AZ.

But since this game is about fun, im going to switch my name over to the New Orleans Saints. Final answer.

I'll take Green Bay please.

TheOgre

09-16-2004, 10:47 AM

Look at Arizona at home last year. Their 38-0 home opening loss to Seattle was the only one they weren't in. Kind of reminds me of the Texans (we lose to KC in the home opener then were in all 7 remaining home games).

The Packers blew it. I can't believe it. Guess I'm out, along with a lot of other people.

Can't believe the Texans blew it AGAIN. It's gonna be a long season.

09-20-2004, 04:16 PM

I pay attention to your betting lines. I guess I'm still shocked the Packers lost to the Bears.

Thanks for posting the schedule. Tough week but I'll take the Vikings in a rebound win.

09-22-2004, 10:45 AM

Ahman Green's untimely fumble cost me this last week. Instead of the Pack being up 10-7 they were suddently down 14-3. That had to sting!

Im sorry I lost my only supporter. This is a sad day indeed. I understand you would like me to have blind faith with the Texans, and I wish I still had it. But after week 2, things just dont look the same. I think the Texans will put up a fighting chance. And could even come away with the W. But I play this game to win. And the Texans arent the road I wish to take. Sorry. :)

Porky

Three west coast teams on the east coast. Wish they would move the New England game to the late start.

I think I'll take the Packers this week.

Porky

10-28-2004, 03:27 PM

This just gets harder every week. No locks this week for me. But, I am confident the Seahawks will rebound, so I will take the boys in Seattle to take care of the Panthers.

V Man

I'll take the Seahawks also

I haven't been checking in here much over the past couple of weeks but it looks like we're down to 5? Is that correct? I think I better get started making those DVD's.

Giants look like a good pick to me too.

I also think the Giants are a good pick this week.

Porky

11-04-2004, 04:06 PM

Well, I hate to go with the crowd, because if the Giants lose, it's all over, but I just think they are the safest play for me this week. So, I will take the Big Boys against the Fuzzy animals.

jgl35

11-04-2004, 10:38 PM

You guys will be all right. Woops, Tiki--5 fumbles, Warner thinks he is back in St. Louis, and Shochey is over in the city in a club and forgets it's not the open week. The Saints D will somehow turn into Balt's Sunday and kill me, so we will all go together.

Stupid Giants. :mad:

Porky

11-07-2004, 08:25 PM

Thanks jgl35! I came extremely close to picking the Chargers. They were my #2 pick. I thought the Giants were a lock, but as we all know, there is no such thing. Congrats to Jgl35!!!

jgl35

11-07-2004, 09:27 PM

You are welcome, Porky. Best of luck to all you guys. Really knowledgeable competion. I feel fortunate to win. If no one minds, I would like to stick around to the end and make picks to see how far I can go. Glad none of you took the Eagles this week. I saw that coming, including the score. Can't stop the run.

Guys, I know the G-men like you guys know Tenn. They have a history of playing down to a poor team out of the division. With the Bears and Ariz. back to back I looked for a lose someplace. I thought it would be next week away at Ariz. Think back, the Texans beat them in your FIRST year.

gwallaia

11-08-2004, 04:37 PM

Porky

11-12-2004, 02:41 PM

Well, I wasn't going to take Pitt, as I saw the Browns as a trap game, but after Warren's statements, I will go ahead and take Pittsburgh over the Brownies.

jgl35

11-12-2004, 04:52 PM

Texans, please. As an outsider, this is not a heart pick. Texans can take control of division. I think they are ready. Won in KC, TENN, flat game last week is over and done. Colts have no def. coming off a short week.AJ has a BIG game.

For the upcoming week, I'm going to take the Seahawks over the Cowgirls.

V Man

12-02-2004, 02:04 PM

What a tough week, I going to have to go with a road team and I don't really like it. Give me the Falcons. Run Vick Run :jumpbanan :jumpbanan

Porky

12-03-2004, 04:02 PM

Not one of them have picked the Texans? :hmmm:

How do you think we made it this far? :evilb:

And, I'm not going with the Texans this week either!

I will take Detroit over Arizona. I'm running out of teams, so if I don't win soon, I'll have to take the Texans. :popcorn:

Your hopes of winning this contest hinge on the Cowgirls winning tonight. :hmmm:

Congratualtions to Porky! :bouncey:

The Seahawks lost a thrilling game last night to put Porky over the top.
* although that was not really a TD by Keyshawn there in the 4th qt.

The hailmary pass bounced off the facemask of one of the Seahawk receivers as time expired. An exciting end to this survivor game.

VMan, sorry to see you drop this one. Maybe next year. :thud:

jgl35

12-07-2004, 09:59 AM

Way to go, Porky. And to all you guys, great contest. Looking forward to doing it again next year.

V Man

12-07-2004, 10:12 AM

I protest Porky's win, it was rigged. There must have been a payoff to give Keyshawn that touchdown and not review it. j/k

congrats on your win Porky, you earned it. :jumpbanan

Porky

12-07-2004, 10:44 AM

I won, I won! Ok, Jgl actually won, but still....I won, I won!!

Send your address in a PM to Herv. He will hook you up with the Texans DVD.

Thanks to everyone for playing. You guys nearly made it through the entire year.

Herv is consisently one of my favorite writers, and provides alot of unique, and level headed commentary. Thanks go to Herv, the other contestants were were very tough, and Vinny for helping to get this started.
